Is it possible to configure HyperKitty to store the original messages, or the headers? Has this ever been discussed? Thanks, Derek Lambert

Basic settings for a discussion list
by paul＠arenson.org 05 Sep '19

05 Sep '19

Over the last 20 hours I have been trying to figure out setup for list members to sign up. One person has kindly helped out, though I am still unsure of the difference between the several signups. That thread is here and I welcome more advice. https://lists.mailman3.org/archives/list/mailman-users@mailman3.org/thread/… But it occurs to me that my problem is that I have not actually configured my list. So this thread is for help on that. I have found a guide for general users here: http://docs.mailman3.org/en/latest/userguide.html But I have only found a highly technical guide for administrators here: https://docs.mailman3.org/projects/mailmanclient/en/latest/src/mailmanclien… It is written for coders and I am looking for a guide similar to the one for users. It seems not to exist yet. WHAT I WANT Discussion only list. Ideally anyone who signs up via the various ways should be able to get the archives and post via email and the interface if they want. The list should be closed to others. In the absence of any guide, all I can do is cross check with you guys and hope I am on the right track. I am non technical, although I managed a Mailman 2 list without difficulty. 1) FIRST ANOMALY Under https://list.tokyoprogressive.org/postorius/accounts/subscriptions/ I see myself twice: List Name Subscription Address Delivery Mode Role discuss.list.tokyoprogressive.org paul(a)tokyoprogressive.org None member discuss.list.tokyoprogressive.org paul(a)tokyoprogressive.org regular owner Is this correct? I added My name in one field somewhere and this is the result. I even got a welcome message. I think it is because I subscribed to my own list.If this was not necessary, what should I do? Global based preferences are listed. Address and email based ones are not showing either enabled or disabled. 2) MANAGE LISTS For myself I have done the following in my MAILING LIST SETTINGS Subscribe to this list My email and name (Maybe that is why i am listed twice) Now I see 3) Users For now only me- I am listed as member and owner. There will be no other moderators or owners I have no idea what a non member is (if they register aren't they a member?) 4) Templates This is showing nothing at this point. Before it was. I am not sure what i did to stop it from showing. Perhaps because I made it a private list? 5) Settings a) List identity I have it set for NOT SHOWING on the Index page because I will link to it from my news magazine website as a way to comment on articles. Is this ok? Other data will be filled in later. I think I am confusing this with private list. I also will have no other list. b) AUTO RESPOND LIST OWNER-- I added a short note thanking people. Respond and Continue Processing c) AUTO RESPOND POSTER--Your message has been been received. If you are a member, it should be posted soon. Respond and Continue Processing d) AUTO RESPOND REQUESTS--No auto response OTHER THINGS DEFAULT e) URL WELCOME MESSAGE--NOT SURE. I want people to subscribe themselves but I also have 500 people from another list from DADA I will import. I want them automatically be able to post. Is it possible? If so, I hope to add them manually. DO I compose a text on my website and welcome them by adding the URL, or enter it in my list? f) NOTIFY OF MEMBERSHIP CHANGES--Yes g) ALTER MESSAGES ---I have left most things as they are. However, as this is a discussion list, I want replies ONLY to go to the list. I chose that. h) DMARC --I have left as is i) DIGEST--I have left as is 6) MASS OPERATIONS--I have left as is 7) BAN--left as is 8) MESSAGE ACCEPTANCE--I have left as is 9) HEADER FILTERS--left as is 10) ARCHIVES--Private Archives (Maybe this is why templates do not show???) 11) SUBSCRIPTION POLICY--MODERATE-- I intend to send them an email to confirm their reasons for subscribing to avoid spammers. LAST THING. My Gravity does not work. I edited it online as per instructions but it does not appear. That is all I can think of. Thanks in advance. paul

Trying to configure a list (hosted)
by paul＠arenson.org 04 Sep '19

04 Sep '19

Is there a how to on how to configure a list? For example, using a hosted option, I see this menu: Subscription requests Held messages Users Templates Settings Mass operations Banned addresses Header filters And cling on settings, for example. I have already removed my list from the list of lists on the server since I want my website users to only see my list. They can either do that here https://list.tokyoprogressive.org/postorius/lists/discuss.list.tokyoprogres… or here https://list.tokyoprogressive.org/accounts/signup/ I actually do not WANT people to join without being able to use the web interface because it is intended to be a discussion list. So the option to subscribe without creating an account. is confusing to me, which is why I prefer the latter. BUT...using a test of signing up myself (using 3 other email addresses I have), some using the subscription option and some using the bottom one (no account), all the email addresses end up in my members list and non end up in my non members list. (So I am wondering what a non member is. I had thought it was someone who signed up without registering (just name, no password), but if so i wonder why all 3 of my addresses end up in the members place. Lastly, I want to configure it as a discussion list. However, I do not see that option, which was clear in MAILMAN 2. (And I understand that if someone registers without making an account, I cannot set them myself to have an account enabling them to see the archives and post from the web? If it IS possible, that would be great, because the purpose of the archives in my case is to enable better discussions than if one has only to refer to their past emails.) That is about it for now, but I am stuck on this right now and a user manual for non techie people, if it exists, would be nice. I see one for list members but not administrators. Maybe I am looking in the wrong place? Thanks paul

Settings: No templates are visible in settings
by paul＠arenson.org 03 Sep '19

03 Sep '19

I am struggling to find out why I do not see TEMPLATES in the Settings. When I first logged they were there. Many of them. Then, toying with the settings, they disappeared. I cannot find them now. Originally i thought I would not list the mailing list but changed my mind. Likewise, archives are now listed as public. I am still thinking about that. In any case, I want to see if there are templates to allow me to change headers or footers in messages, such as give the address of the list. Thank you for your advice. P.S> Sorry i asked too many questions the other day. Trying to keep this brief.

I have subscribed to the following rss feeds to keep track of updates: https://libraries.io/pypi/mailman/versions.atom https://libraries.io/pypi/mailman-hyperkitty/versions.atom https://libraries.io/pypi/HyperKitty/versions.atom https://libraries.io/pypi/postorius/versions.atom https://gitlab.com/mailman/mailman-suite/commits/master?feed_token=yitiVdhX… but none of them was updated for half a year, is that actually the status? No current releases or updates for mailman3?

Status of hosting options after a year for non techies
by paul＠arenson.org 26 Aug '19

26 Aug '19

Hi all This is Paul Arenson in Japan. I temporarily dropped off the list year ago when it was clear there was no Cpanel Solution forthcoming. I thought I would check in again. I used to be on CPanel and I was advised it might be a wait. 1) I am now on Plesk. I heard Plesk might allow Docker and installation may be possible. Am I misinformed or a possibility? --->Assuming no, I guess jump to question 4. 2) Assuming yes, I see a list of people who can possibly help install. https://wiki.list.org/COM/Mailman%20consulting%20services Only a few people on it. Has anyone used any or can recommend someone. 3) There is also a Python list, but before I submit a request, is this something that works on general. For example, when a new version or bug release comes up, will I need to call on the person or persons again? Is it still better to wait? 4) Hosting services: Only a few listed at https://wiki.list.org/COM/Mailman%20hosting%20services are or Mailman 3. Has anyone used this: https://mailman3.com The site seems incomplete. Or this: https://maadix.net/en/servers Looks good. Might be a bit expensive for my use. Or this: https://www.mailmanhost.com/mailman-3-hosting/ Also looks good. A long time ago we corresponded. They seem reasonable. My list is about 700 people. These seem to be the same people: https://www.emwd.com/mailman-3-shared-list-hosting/ Any others I should know about? Thanks in advance. paul arenson japan

MM3 + Postfix + Dovecot + PostfixAdmin

System: Debian Buster Install: Functioning Postfix w/ Dovecot using PostfixAdmin for virtual domain and mailbox management Definitions: Host.TLD = my server's domain name; List.TLD = listserv's domain name; ListName = list's name.

You may need to run "python manage.py compress". Here is the original content: Any clues?
